وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَعْمَالُهُمْ كَسَرَاب ٍ بِقِيعَة ٍ يَحْسَبُهُ الظَّمْآنُ مَاءً حَتَّى إِذَا جَاءَه ُُ لَمْ يَجِدْهُ شَيْئا ً وَوَجَدَ اللَّهَ عِنْدَه ُُ فَوَفَّاه ُُ حِسَابَه ُُ وَاللَّهُ سَرِيعُ الْحِسَابِ
Wa Al-Ladhīna Kafarū 'A`māluhum Kasarābin Biqī`atin Yaĥsabuhu Až-žam'ānu Mā'an Ĥattá 'Idhā Jā'ahu Lam Yajid/hu Shay'āan Wa Wajada Allāha `Indahu Fawaffāhu Ĥisābahu Wa Allāhu Sarī`u Al-Ĥisābi
